True story:

In about 1997 I was walking from the garage where I parked my bike to my office. I was wearing a red/silver Aerostich Roadcrafter suit and carrying my black/silver Shoei helmet.

Approaching me on the sidewalk was an urban "yout" dressed in the latest street fashion. Specifically:
  • Enormously baggy pants with the crotch at knee level and six inches of underwear showing.
  • Aggressively untied basketball shoes with tongues hanging out
  • Hoodie worn off the shoulder, around the elbows.
  • Baseball cap worn semi-sideways.
He smiled and said "Yo, Power Rangers!!!"

I realized that even geared up like I was, compared to him I didn't look ridiculous at all.

Gear up and wear it like a boss.
